Fabasoft Cloud 2016 February Release

Find out more about new features and improvements in the Fabasoft Cloud 2016 February Release.

Management of Organizational Units and External Organizations

Beside the organization administrator additional users can be defined who are allowed to manage organizational units and external organizations. Consequently, administrative tasks can be delegated without losing control of external organizations.

As organization administrator you define the members who are entitled to manage organizational units and external organizations:

Organization dashboard > “Advanced Settings” > “Define Policies” > “Actions” tab > Manage External Organizations or Manage Organizational Units

The organization with correspondingly restricted functionality is put on “Home” of the defined members.

Note:

• Regular organization members cannot add users to external organizations anymore while adding them to Teamrooms.
• The exclusion of members or external members is only available for organization administrators.
• If a member is excluded who is allowed to manage organizational units or external organizations, the successor is added to the policies instead.

Working With BPMN 2.0

The Fabasoft Cloud supports the international standard BPMN 2.0 (Business Process Model and Notation) for business process modeling. In addition to the renewed BPMN editor that allows you a simple graphical modeling, you can directly execute the business processes with the workflow engine. You get a tailored to your business workflow, without having to program a single line.

Now you can also define ad hoc processes efficiently with the BPMN editor.
